Self-paced part-list cuing

Ironically, the presentation of a subset of studied material as retrieval cues at test often impairs recall of the remaining (target) material—an effect known as part-list cuing impairment. Part-list cues are typically provided at the beginning of the recall period, a time when nearly all individuals would be able to recall at least some studied items on their own. Across two experiments, we examined the effects of part-list cuing when student participants could decide on their own when the cues were presented during the recall period. Results showed that participants activated the cues relatively late in the recall period, when recall was already close to asymptote. Critically, such delayed cuing no longer impaired recall performance. The detrimental effect of part-list cuing, as it has been demonstrated numerous times in the memory literature, thus seems to depend on presentating the cue items (too) early in the recall period.

Rhetorical Devices in Political Speeches: Nigel Farage’s Speeches at the European Parliament

Nigel Farage’s speeches and rhetoric have been instrumental and effective in the British voters’ decision to withdraw from the European Union. This paper aims to study rhetorical devices in the speeches of Nigel Farage at the European Parliament: list constructions, contrastive pairs etc. Having identified and classified the rhetorical devices, I proceed to perform a frequency analysis with the purpose of determining the number of times each device occurs. Thus the research questions are: (a) what rhetorical devices permeate the speeches? and (b) what is their frequency of occurrence? In order to achieve these objectives, I have studied twenty speeches Farage delivered at the European Parliament during the period from 2010 to 2017. I examine rhetorical devices that were previously treated as nonessential in Farage’s speeches (cf. Hädicke 2012) and I present arguments against the claim that the three-part list is the most common strategy in political speeches.

Diversification of Reprogramming Trajectories Revealed by Parallel Single-cell Transcriptome and Chromatin Accessibility Sequencing

To unravel the mechanism of human cellular reprogramming process at single-cell resolution, we performed parallel scRNA-Seq and scATAC-Seq analysis. Our analysis reveals that the cells undergoing reprogramming proceed in an asynchronous trajectory and diversify into heterogeneous sub-populations. BDD2-C8 fluorescent probe staining and negative staining for CD13, CD44 and CD201 markers, could enrich for the GDF3+ early reprogrammed cells. Combinatory usage of the surface markers enables the fine segregation of the early-intermediate cells with diverse reprogramming propensities. scATAC-Seq analysis further uncovered the genomic partitions and transcription factors responsible for the regulatory phasing of reprogramming process. Binary choice between a FOSL1 or a TEAD4-centric regulatory network determines the outcome of a successful reprogramming. Altogether, our study illuminates the multitude of diverse routes transversed by individual reprogramming cells and presents an integrative roadmap for identifying the mechanistic part-list of the reprogramming machinery.
